However, sticky inflation above 2% and resilience in the Japanese economy keep speculation alive for another BoJ hike later this year. Meanwhile, the USD consolidates strong weekly gains, supported by US economic resilience and political risks abroad. The ongoing US government shutdown remains a wildcard, though markets are still pricing in two Fed rate cuts (Oct & Dec 2025), which could eventually cap USD strength. π Key Technical Levels Resistance Zone: 153.27 β 153.38 Support Zone: 152.57 β 152.68 Trendline Support: 152.50 π Trade Summary Bias remains bullish above 152.50, with scope for a retest of 153.27β153.38.
